Luca’s journey began in the sky. He was so passionate about flying that he earned his helicopter license before he could legally drive a car. But something else took hold of his imagination: a deep fascination with safety, inspired by Brazil’s emerging focus on safety management systems (SMS) in aviation.

While others tracked flight hours, Luca delved into risk models, accident data, and systems theory. His goal wasn’t just to fly, it was to understand how things go wrong, and how to prevent that from ever happening.

That commitment led him to Europe’s largest business aviation operator and eventually to Canada, where he’s now translating those insights to the world of biosafety.
